    It was a perfect storm of mistakes. No ill intent by anyone. Just so very lucky my son programmed my mother's phone for auto-answering and I heard her calling out. So I reached out to the team, only to find out that none of them came. Mom is OK. No damage done, and a good education for all of us.

    Blend the first five ingredients. Put in small Pyrex dish. Sprinkle with cinnamon crackers then layer the sliced strawberries. Cool for at least 2 hrs. Sprinkle more cinnamon crackers on top… I substituted Oikos high-protein yogurt so my protein increased and I substituted 3 tablespoons cottage cheese for 3 of the 8 tablespoons of the whipped cream cheese….. (lowered calories). So SOOOOO good!

    This recipe is from “shredhappens“ - on Facebook and Instagram. All of his recipes are delicious and easy!!!

    the recipe says that quantity is for 4 but I think it could serve six!

    🎷 67 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 310 (my 240th).

    Goals for every round;

    • First and foremost, no feeding frenzies – I am not a shark or even a piranha!
    • to weigh less at the end of the round than the start
    • be happy because I feel that I have made the round count at the end
    • to have a totally 10-day binge free round.

    I need to remain consistent - it does work! Good luck for success everyone.

    image-955b96b4a35278-e2a9.png

    Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, it’s taken me 75 rounds to achieve target of 130 = back to maintenance!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back to around 135. A healthy lifestyle must be a permanent way of life.

    Updated 20.08.24 – I met up with youngest DB, first time after his DP passed away at the way too early age of 46. DB lives a long way from us, we see him very infrequently & is very introvert, so not a sharer of info 😞. However, he finally opened up to me, it seems that his DPs bad health leading to heart failure followed by kidney, liver failure & then a massive stroke, was originally caused by heavy drinking. By the time he realised he was abusing his body and went teetotal, the damage was too late to reverse. He was on the list for a heart transplant, but his other organs gave up before one became available. This has made me think about how I am abusing my body when I have binges with way too much sugar, fat & salt. I know I am a food addict. I'm going to try to think about this when I am tempted to overindulge, I need to start respecting my body more and think about whether I want to be in the best health I can be. My body has served me so well for 67 years, it deserves to be given the best chance to keep serving me well & I've been really lucky that life has not dealt me a raw health deal, so I must not jeopardize that luck.

    I am the driver in my life & not the passenger, I need to drive my life to a healthy life."Health is wealth".

    9/27 142.6 – (trend 142.6) No structured walking; visited National Trust property - Coughton Court before it passes back into control of the family. Pleased with the round once we returned from holiday, just a pound to lose before I’m back to pre-holiday weight.

    ED Rnd 309 142.6

    SW Rnd 310 142.6

    9/28 142.6 - (trend 142.6) 5.08 miles, met up with DS & family for a day at a Victorian living museum.

    9/29 142.6 – (trend 142.6) 11.7 miles walked.

    9/30 141.8 – (trend 142.5) 7.55 miles walked.

    10/1 142.4 – (trend 142.5) no structured walking, hair appt. met FF including 3 DSs for lunch, supermarket shopping.

    10/2 142.4 - trend (142.5) - rain stopped me walking to my casual part time Invigilating job at the school, had to use the car, hence only got just short of 5 miles walking in yesterday.

    10/3 142.4 – (trend 142.5) 6.14 miles walked. Had a lovely romantic afternoon with DH, he surprised me by turning up at the end of my volunteering shift with a picnic to have in the extensive gardens, who says romance is dead after 47 years of marriage? Did mean I was over on calories, but a small price to pay.

    10/4 142.4 – (trend 142.5) just short of 5 miles walked before the rain came. Will the remnants of storm Amy allow me to get out walking today?

    10/5 142.4 – (trend 142.4) Seems that my body/scales like this number! 10.3 miles walked yesterday. Seems that I missed a day somewhere? Sorted now.

    Up at 3:00 this morning after a return from a fantastic whirlwind tour from Prague, Nuremberg, Vienna, Budapest and London. Part of that was a river cruise with three square meals a day. I ate every meal like it was my last but burned a trillion calories. Thus, a surprisingly low gain on the scale.

    I have a lot of work to do to meet goals.

    I will find a picture or two to share.

    10/2: 224.2
    ✏️☣️🎯💓
    I am ok with this as part of the upcoming yoyo. This is more like what I expected upon my return.

    Even though I met all goals, I could have been more disciplined.

    10/3: 221.8
    ✏️☣️
    Unexplainable. It would have been better with some exercise. Yesterday there was a lot of reading and a lot of cub game on TV. !W!

    We had a bunch of turnips from our CSA, so DW made a Scalloped Turnips recipe that was fantastic. As yummy as the potato version.

    A question for our community: I bought some whey protein powder before saddling myself with a “no-Ultra-processed foods” goal. The pictures nutrition panel and ingredients look ultra processed. Thoughts? (I just looked, it is not “Bobby Approved.”

    10/4: 220.2

    Up at 3:15 this morning. Still fighting jet lag. Today will be spent pulling together details for my little fishing trip. I can’t wait to fire up “theKraken” (my boat.)

    I wrote yesterday’s post then forgot to post it. See you all next round.

    Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 310
    Sept 28 – Oct 7, 2025

    63 year old female, 5’5”. I am married, semi-nomadic (we live in three states, Mass, Maine, Florida). 
    SW WW Sept 29, 2001 - 168.8 (initially lost 29.8, became staff, then up and down 18 years with low of 126.8)
    SW MFP Sept 14, 2020  – 153 (lost 40, then stress loss of 2.2 lb with low of 120.8, then stress gain)
    SW MFP Jan 1, 2023  – 146.6

    GW Maintaining between 124 – 126 

    SW: 128.8

    9/28 – 128.4 Onion rings for dinner. At least I have nothing else with it. :)

    9/29 – 128.6

    9/30 – 128.0 Got through dining out night #1. Tonight is lasagna at my MIL’s. I should be able to handle that OK as I have eaten it many times.

    10/1 – 128.0 so this seems to be where I am at. Calories yesterday were reasonable. I have a sneaking suspicion though that I have not been post my #’s  to our group.

    10/2 – 128.6

    10/3 – 129.2

    10/4 – 129.0 Man, it is a struggle fest to get my focus back. Not tracking. Not checking in here. But I am stepping on the scale (as it creeps up). Yesterday was another fiasco with my mother’s private aids. Not intentional, but no one came to care for her yesterday, and the facility, because they know about the private aids, did not check on her. She had been left in bed since the previous night (thankfully wearing a depends) with no food, water, or other care. I discovered the issue when I called to say “hi” at 3:30. DS has programmed her phone to auto pick up as she is not capable of answering by herself. I can hear her in a distance calling “help me help me”. Anyhow, that’s the short version. I did not sleep well last night thinking about all this. See how the day goes.

    10/5 – 128.2 Actually did well yesterday. Good food choices and properly tracked.

Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non-scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share. Make the board your own - track what is important for YOUR JOURNEY.

    F 66, married, retired. Embracing “growing younger” mindset. Being fully present to enjoy life each moment of my journey. ⬅️This is quite a tall order! I fully commit to a daily renewal of #MindBodySoul. 📖

    SW R310 = ⚖️133.0

    BHAG 128-130lbs FIRM - by 10/26. Seems like this goal is doable, but I haven’t been able to “succeed” for a good long while, so let’s do the improbable! Rnd Goal = down 1lb to 132.0 for a strong start #MindBodySoul #HSF 

    9/28 133.0 🚶‍♀️💗👣📖💦

    10/06 

    10/07 

    **********

    9/28 -Will target 1100 cal / 120 Pg this round. 

    9/29 -dragging / a little tired this morning, but will perk up soon and have a terrific day. I will “ will it” true! I stayed up later than usual (11pm!!!!) streaming a show… Looking forward to a positive day! 

    9/30 Was sleepy all day yesterday. Two hour nap. Ate dinner late & no TMI x2. I never really woke up to my energetic self … I certainly tried! Will begin weighing my portions again. New day! #HSF #MindBodySoul 

    Planned: 🎾🏋️‍♀️👣 📖💦

    10/1 DNW Sleep deprived again. Did not 🏋️‍♀️yesterday. Two hrs 🎾 was enough. Food good but carbs high. Ate two great big beautiful organic medjool dates last night - divine. Maybe that’s why I didn’t sleep? 😊 Tennis this morning. 

    10/2 133.0 One foot after the other. I had an OK day, as I’m heavy with a big decision… Trying to figure out - will change my day-to-day dramatically… I’ve been a member at my tennis/health /spa club for 15 years and thinking about changing which will change my routine/ tennis life/ etc. Seems like not that big of a deal, but it is for me. I captain two tennis teams, and it would mean, leaving that tennis network and joining another. It’s been on my mind for quite some time. On the food as fuel front, I think I’m once again in a “maintenance mindset” when I said I would be in a “weight loss” mindset. I will evaluate that today. My hubby is out of town until Sunday night on a big bike weekend … Hoping to focus on re-centering and building positivity. Today: 🏆🤸🏼🏋️‍♀️🚶‍♀️💗👣📖

    10/3 I had planned to do so much yesterday, but got lost in  “inaction”. But oh, did I piddle! I haven’t had a piddle day in so so long and it was glorious! At least I ran errands, groceries & stayed on track with fueling my body. Today will be different. Starting with a 🎾 lesson, 🏋️‍♀️👣. Happy weekend, everyone! #HSF, #MindBodySoul 

    10/4 DNW 4hrs sleep. Stayed up super late to finish my show.  😊 Enjoyed trying a new high protein deconstructed cheesecake… 200 cal, 30Pg. Yum. 125 Pg yesterday. Headed out for my 5 mile WV 🚶‍♀️💗.  

    10/5 positive day, but I did not enough💦. 143Pg. 1170 cals. NSV: “Food noise” is down! And, I’m not beating myself up for the scale not budging… I know it will happen eventually. Staying calm & resolute. On my walk yesterday, I listened to scripture. Healing. Strength/food for my soul. #HSF #MindBodySoul

    I’m back, ready to go. 

    Goals for the rest of 2025

    • Eat mindfully. 🍎
    • Regain regular exercise habit beyond gardening. Walk! 👟
    • Check in here daily. ✏️

    Weight end of last round — R279, October 30, 2024– 194.9

    Date, Trend Weight, Comments

    09/28 — 199.7
    Ok, up a wee bit, but that’s ok. Off we go! 

    09/29 — 199.7
    Now I remember why I don’t like weighing every day. 😊 I did stick to my calorie limit yesterday, and met my walking goal. 

    09/30 — 199.4
    Another good day yesterday. 

    10/01 — 198.7
    This is good—I’m feeling empowered to do something about these stupid pounds. My actual weigh in this morning was 197.2, which I wanted to post, but in the long run I know I’ll be happier posting my trend weights. I used to walk 5-8 miles almost every day but got out of the habit. I’m trying now to rebuild my walking muscle, and even just 3 days in, I see improvement. All good! 

    10/02 — 198.7
    I had a little snack slide last night—that’s a backslide involving a snack. Not too bad calorie wise, but I’m trying to stop the late-night snack habit. I also skipped my walk due to horrible runny nose and watery eyes. I’m not sure if it’s a bad allergy attack or a cold. Oh, well, I’ll get back with it today. 

    10/03 — 198.6
    Still coughing and blowing yesterday, so I skipped my walk, but did do some garden work and ate responsibly. Creeping downward. 

    10/04 — 198.6
    Off for lunch with a friend—Panera Bread half salad for me. I’ve been doing better with my snack habit, and getting more exercise. Who’s a good girl? 

    10/05 — 198.3
    I’m surprised the scale went down today—I wasn’t terrible yesterday, but did go over my goals. I’ll take it!

    10/06 —

    We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

    What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off. 

    We are unstoppable not because we do not have failures but because we continue on despite them. - paraphrase of original quote by Beau Taplin

    Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

    JamesClear  “New goals don't deliver new results. New lifestyles do. And a lifestyle is a process, not an outcome. For this reason, all of your energy should go into building better habits, not chasing better results.”

    10/2  132.0  I’m making 4 loaves of bread today.

    10/3  132.0 Going out to dinner tonight. I feel as if I have a cold again. I hope it’s just allergies. 

    10/4  132.5  Two weeks until Caribbean cruise

    10/5   134.5!!!!! So many carbs the last two days. I need to get a grip!

He's even losing weight by default haha.)

    10/03-184.2 ✅ (Trend Weight: 184.1)

    10/04-186.0 ❌ (Trend Weight: 184.2) I had a pretty bad glucose drop yesterday. This can be common with a diabetic but it hasn’t happened to me in a bit. Of course, I shoveled all food in sight quickly in for as long as it took to get my head above water and no longer be drowning. The instinct is Never To Sink. Afterward there is always the sadness and regret but it’s too late. I had not waited too long to eat and my prior meal was enough and was good so I don’t always understand. Only 3 more reporting days to the challenge and goal is to be less than I started. I don’t know that I can meet or exceed that goal. It depends on how much of this is water retention, I suppose. However, I can still at least make a good dent in that goal if all goes well and I stick to my guns.

    🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃 10/05-186.0 ↔️ (Trend Weight: 184.4) A pretty good day yesterday. 3 hours of raking leaves but this time I made sure I had a small carby and calorie dense meal/snack before beginning so that it would keep up with the exertion. It didn’t allow me to take advantage of the calorie burn but it did keep me from another glucose drop and feeding frenzy. Anyhoo, fridge was fixed. It had ice build up in the fan due to the back panel being loose. No $$$ for parts and free labor from son so I finally got a $$$ break. Have a great Sunday everyone!

    10/06-xxxxx (Trend Weight: xxxxx)

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    My favorite brunch! The “No Bagel needed” brunch. 386 calories, 41 Pg, 23 Fg & 4 carbs: one egg/3 egg white scramble, 2oz wild smoked salmon, 1.5 oz avocado, 3 T whipped 2% Good Culture cottage cheese (used to fake cream cheese) & two slices uncured “Sunday Bacon” & black coffee. Oh so darn delicious! (On a salad plate!) I guess you can say that’s one of my new habits. I never eat on a full dinner plate anymore… I only use salad plates.

    🎷 67 yrs young F, 5ft 4 Round 310 (my 240th).

    Goals for every round;

    • First and foremost, no feeding frenzies – I am not a shark or even a piranha!
    • to weigh less at the end of the round than the start
    • be happy because I feel that I have made the round count at the end
    • to have a totally 10-day binge free round.

    I need to remain consistent - it does work! Good luck for success everyone.

    image-5042960329d7e8-9c85.png

    Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, it’s taken me 75 rounds to achieve target of 130 = back to maintenance!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back to around 135. A healthy lifestyle must be a permanent way of life.

    Updated 20.08.24 – I met up with youngest DB, first time after his DP passed away at the way too early age of 46. DB lives a long way from us, we see him very infrequently & is very introvert, so not a sharer of info 😞. However, he finally opened up to me, it seems that his DPs bad health leading to heart failure followed by kidney, liver failure & then a massive stroke, was originally caused by heavy drinking. By the time he realised he was abusing his body and went teetotal, the damage was too late to reverse. He was on the list for a heart transplant, but his other organs gave up before one became available. This has made me think about how I am abusing my body when I have binges with way too much sugar, fat & salt. I know I am a food addict. I'm going to try to think about this when I am tempted to overindulge, I need to start respecting my body more and think about whether I want to be in the best health I can be. My body has served me so well for 67 years, it deserves to be given the best chance to keep serving me well & I've been really lucky that life has not dealt me a raw health deal, so I must not jeopardize that luck.

    I am the driver in my life & not the passenger, I need to drive my life to a healthy life."Health is wealth".

    9/27 142.6 – (trend 142.6) No structured walking; visited National Trust property - Coughton Court before it passes back into control of the family. Pleased with the round once we returned from holiday, just a pound to lose before I’m back to pre-holiday weight.

    ED Rnd 309 142.6

    SW Rnd 310 142.6

    9/28 142.6 - (trend 142.6) 5.08 miles, met up with DS & family for a day at a Victorian living museum.

    9/29 142.6 – (trend 142.6) 11.7 miles walked.

    9/30 141.8 – (trend 142.5) 7.55 miles walked.

    10/1 142.4 – (trend 142.5) no structured walking, hair appt. met FF including 3 DSs for lunch, supermarket shopping.

    10/2 142.4 - trend (142.5) - rain stopped me walking to my casual part time Invigilating job at the school, had to use the car, hence only got just short of 5 miles walking in yesterday.

    10/3 142.4 – (trend 142.5) 6.14 miles walked. Had a lovely romantic afternoon with DH, he surprised me by turning up at the end of my volunteering shift with a picnic to have in the extensive gardens, who says romance is dead after 47 years of marriage? Did mean I was over on calories, but a small price to pay.

    10/4 142.4 – (trend 142.5) just short of 5 miles walked before the rain came. Will the remnants of storm Amy allow me to get out walking today?

    10/5 142.4 – (trend 142.4) Seems that my body/scales like this number! 10.3 miles walked yesterday. Seems that I missed a day somewhere? Sorted now.

    10/6 141.8 – (trend 142.4) At last! 10.28 miles walked.

    JGMTD #310 #80 #discipline  

    F 66, married, retired. Embracing “growing younger” mindset. Being fully present to enjoy life each moment of my journey. ⬅️This is quite a tall order! I fully commit to a daily renewal of #MindBodySoul. 📖

    SW R310 = ⚖️133.0

    BHAG 128-130lbs FIRM - by 10/26. Seems like this goal is doable, but I haven’t been able to “succeed” for a good long while, so let’s do the improbable! Rnd Goal = down 1lb to 132.0 for a strong start #MindBodySoul #HSF 

    9/28 133.0 🚶‍♀️💗👣📖💦

    9/29  132.8  🏆🎾🏀🤸🏼🚶‍♀️👣📖

    09/30 133.2🏆🎾🤸🏼📖💦

    10/01 DNW 🎾👣 📖💦

    10/02 133.0 🎾👣📖💦

    10/03 132.8  🏆🤸🏼📖💦

    10/04 DNW 🏆👣🏋️‍♀️🤸🏼📖💦

    10/05 133.0 🏆🚶‍♀️💗👣🏋️‍♀️📖

    10/06  133.8 ?!?! 🏆🏋️‍♀️📖💦

    10/07 

    ********

    9/28 -Will target 1100 cal / 120 Pg this round. 

    9/29 -dragging / a little tired this morning, but will perk up soon and have a terrific day. I will “ will it” true! I stayed up later than usual (11pm!!!!) streaming a show… Looking forward to a positive day! 

    9/30 Was sleepy all day yesterday. Two hour nap. Ate dinner late & no TMI x2. I never really woke up to my energetic self … I certainly tried! Will begin weighing my portions again. New day! #HSF #MindBodySoul 

    Planned: 🎾🏋️‍♀️👣 📖💦

    10/1 DNW Sleep deprived again. Did not 🏋️‍♀️yesterday. Two hrs 🎾 was enough. Food good but carbs high. Ate two great big beautiful organic medjool dates last night - divine. Maybe that’s why I didn’t sleep? 😊 Tennis this morning. 

    10/2 133.0 One foot after the other. I had an OK day, as I’m heavy with a big decision… Trying to figure out - will change my day-to-day dramatically… I’ve been a member at my health /spa club for 15 years and thinking about changing which will change my routine/ tennis life/ etc. Seems like not that big of a deal, but it is for me. I captain two tennis teams, and it would mean, leaving that tennis network and joining another. It’s been on my mind for quite some time. On the food as fuel front, I think I’m once again in a “maintenance mindset” when I said I would be in a “weight loss” mindset. I will evaluate that today. My hubby is out of town until Sunday night on a big bike weekend … Hoping to focus on re-centering and building positivity. Today: 🏆🤸🏼🏋️‍♀️🚶‍♀️💗👣📖

    10/3 I had planned to do so much yesterday, but got lost in  “inaction”. But oh, did I piddle! I haven’t had a piddle day in so so long and it was glorious! At least I ran errands, groceries & stayed on track with fueling my body. Today will be different. Starting with a 🎾 lesson, 🏋️‍♀️👣. Happy weekend, everyone! #HSF, #MindBodySoul 

    10/4 DNW 4hrs sleep. Stayed up super late to finish my show.  😊 Enjoyed trying a new high protein deconstructed cheesecake… 200 cal, 30Pg. Yum. 125 Pg yesterday. Headed out for my 5 mile WV 🚶‍♀️💗.  

    10/5 positive day, but I did not enough💦. 143Pg. 1170 cals. NSV: “Food noise” is down! And, I’m not beating myself up for the scale not budging… I know it will happen eventually. Staying calm & resolute. On my walk yesterday, I listened to scripture. Healing. #HSF #MindBodySoul 

    10/6 ⚖️ ?!? TMI?! I’m not even going to try to explain this conundrum. 1145 cals, 116 Pg. I was actually looking forward to getting on the scale this morning only for the wind to be taken out of my sails. Huh? I should know better. Patience. My body is different. My metabolism is different. Now, I’m going to correct my thinking, continue the course, stay positive and onward! Yesterday, I spent a couple of hours studying macros, etc. and created a revised/documented plan. My new goal for protein is 115 g for the next four weeks. And, will document all 🏋️‍♀️🤸🏼⏱️ since they have not become REAL habits-yet. Continuing to measure foods. My avg steps for the past month declined to just below 8k. Will kick that up! Full day planned - and I get to put on my chauffeur’s cap every afternoon this week and visit with Darling Tucker!🍁 #HSF #MindBodySoul
